Obsidian will reveal its new game next week at the Video Games Award 2018, won’t feature micro-transactions

Geoff Keighley has revealed that Obsidian will reveal its brand new sci-fi RPG at the Video Games Award 2018 next week. Although we don’t know much about it, we do know that it will be in third-person and will be published by Private Division (meaning that it should theoretically be a multi-platform title).

For those wondering, this upcoming RPG will not feature any micro-transactions. As Obsidian has already stated, it does not plan to implement any micro-transcations and Private Division has been incredibly supportive of its vision, its creative freedom, and the process by which it works to make RPGs.

Furthermore, two of the original Fallout creators, Tim Cain and Leonard Boyarsky, will be working on this new RPG so it will be interesting to see what Obsidian will bring to the table, especially after what has happened with Fallout 76.

Stay tuned for more!

  1. I hope it’s my dream game: a battle royale card game that supports RTX and is heavily dependent on loot boxes.

          1. This website censors words randomly, so I do what I can to sidestep their nonsense when I feel they might censor.

            edit: You need to learn basic grammar, punctuation and capitalization.

    1. damn i just clicked on flag to report this bot that copy pasted nipple pinchy and first thing you can report them for is “i disagree with this user”. honestly i think another world war is necessary.

  2. Well since MS owns them, it’ll be deved for X1 first, PC second, so my interest has basically dropped to zero already.

    I’ll never believe MS PR in saying “we really love PC gaming, so we’ve decided to make it for PC first” bs.

  3. The fact that its third person has me intrigued, now lets hope it doesnt feature a female protag and were all set.

  4. Hope Microsoft will give Obsidian green light to make Fable 4 it would be awesome coming from them. Perfect rpg studio for Fable 4(exept maybe cdpr).

  5. Because of that retro-like messages and word “spacer” I would assume it will be some kind of retro sci-fi, dieselpunk or something. Maybe something like recent RPG Insomnia…
    If you are not familiar with it, check out… (its already released on Steam, but it needs few patches)
